These authors contributed equally. y Co-last authors. z Received: 22 July 2020; Accepted: 4 September 2020; Published: 8 September 2020 Abstract: The senescence process is the result of a series of factors that start from the genetic constitution interacting with epigenetic modifications induced by endogenous and environmental causes and that lead to a progressive deterioration at the cellular and functional levels. One of the main causes of aging is oxidative stress deriving from the imbalance between the production of reactive oxygen (ROS) and nitrogen (RNS) species and their scavenging through antioxidants. Xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR) activities produce uric acid, as well as reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, which all may be relevant to such equilibrium. This review analyzes XOR activity through in vitro experiments, animal studies and clinical reports, which highlight the pro-aging effects of XOR products. However, XOR activity contributes to a regular level of ROS and RNS, which appears essential for the proper functioning of many physiological pathways. This discourages the use of therapies with XOR inhibitors, unless symptomatic hyperuricemia is present.

  • The Link Between Purine Metabolism and Production of Antibiotics in Streptomyces
    antibiotics Review The Link between Purine Metabolism and Production of Antibiotics in Streptomyces Smitha Sivapragasam and Anne Grove * Department of Biological Sciences, Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge, LA 70803, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 10 May 2019; Accepted: 3 June 2019; Published: 6 June 2019 Abstract: Stress and starvation causes bacterial cells to activate the stringent response. This results in down-regulation of energy-requiring processes related to growth, as well as an upregulation of genes associated with survival and stress responses. Guanosine tetra- and pentaphosphates (collectively referred to as (p)ppGpp) are critical for this process. In Gram-positive bacteria, a main function of (p)ppGpp is to limit cellular levels of GTP, one consequence of which is reduced transcription of genes that require GTP as the initiating nucleotide, such as rRNA genes. In Streptomycetes, the stringent response is also linked to complex morphological differentiation and to production of secondary metabolites, including antibiotics. These processes are also influenced by the second messenger c-di-GMP. Since GTP is a substrate for both (p)ppGpp and c-di-GMP, a finely tuned regulation of cellular GTP levels is required to ensure adequate synthesis of these guanosine derivatives. Here, we discuss mechanisms that operate to control guanosine metabolism and how they impinge on the production of antibiotics in Streptomyces species. Keywords: c-di-GMP; guanosine and (p)ppGpp; purine salvage; secondary metabolism; Streptomycetes; stringent response 1. Introduction Bacteria experience constant challenges, either in the environment or when infecting a host. They utilize various mechanisms to survive such stresses, which may include changes in temperature, pH, or oxygen content as well as limited access to carbon or nitrogen sources.

Over the past decade, however, the essential contributions of glutathione to cellular iron metabolism have come more and more into focus. GSH is indispensable in mitochondrial iron-sulfur (FeS) cluster biosynthesis, primarily by co-ligating FeS clusters as a cofactor of the CGFS-type (class II) glutaredoxins (Grxs). GSH is required for the export of the yet to be defined FeS precursor from the mitochondria to the cytosol. In the cytosol, it is an essential cofactor, again of the multi-domain CGFS-type Grxs, master players in cellular iron and FeS trafficking. In this review, we summarize the recent advances and progress in this field. The most urgent open questions are discussed, such as the role of GSH in the export of FeS precursors from mitochondria, the physiological roles of the CGFS-type Grx interactions with BolA-like proteins and the cluster transfer between Grxs and recipient proteins.

Abstract Background: Prednisone, one of the most highly prescribed drugs, has well characterized effects on gene transcription mediated by the glucocorticoid receptor. These effects are typically occurring on the scale of hours. Prednisone also has a number of non-transcriptional effects (occurring on minutes scale) on protein signaling, yet these are less well studied. We sought to expand the understanding of acute effects of prednisone action on cell signaling using a combination of SILAC strategy and subcellular fractionations from C2C12 myotubes. Results: De novo translation of proteins was inhibited in both SILAC labeled and unlabeled C2C12 myotubes.

The blood, cerebrospinal fluid, and postmortem brain samples of MS patients evidenced the presence of reduction-oxidation (redox) homeostasis disturbance such as the alternations of oxidative and antioxidative enzyme activities and the presence of degradation products. This review article discussed the components of redox homeostasis including reactive chemical species, oxidative enzymes, antioxidative enzymes, and degradation products. The reactive chemical species covered frequently discussed reactive oxygen/nitrogen species, rarely featured reactive chemicals such as sulfur, carbonyls, halogens, selenium, and nucleophilic species that potentially act as reductive as well as pro-oxidative stressors. The antioxidative enzyme systems covered the nuclear factor erythroid-2-related factor 2 (NRF2)-Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (KEAP1) signaling pathway, a possible biomarker sensitive to the initial phase of oxidative stress. Altered components of the redox homeostasis in MS were discussed, some of which turned to be MS subtype- or treatment-specific and thus potentially become diagnostic, prognostic, predictive, and/or therapeutic biomarkers.

  • Xanthine Oxidase Mediates Hypoxia-Inducible Factor-2A Degradation by Intermittent Hypoxia
    Xanthine Oxidase Mediates Hypoxia-Inducible Factor-2a Degradation by Intermittent Hypoxia Jayasri Nanduri*, Damodara Reddy Vaddi, Shakil A. Khan, Ning Wang, Vladislav Makerenko, Nanduri R. Prabhakar Institute for Integrative Physiology and Center for Systems Biology of O2 Sensing, Biological Sciences Division, University of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois, United States of America Abstract Sleep-disordered breathing with recurrent apnea produces chronic intermittent hypoxia (IH). We previously reported that IH leads to down-regulation of HIF-2a protein via a calpain-dependent signaling pathway resulting in oxidative stress. In the present study, we delineated the signaling pathways associated with calpain-dependent HIF-2a degradation in cell cultures and rats subjected to chronic IH. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavengers prevented HIF-2a degradation by IH and ROS mimetic decreased HIF-2a protein levels in rat pheochromocytoma PC12 cell cultures, suggesting that ROS mediate IH- induced HIF-2a degradation. IH activated xanthine oxidase (XO) by increased proteolytic conversion of xanthine dehydrogenase to XO. ROS generated by XO activated calpains, which contributed to HIF-2a degradation by IH. Calpain- induced HIF-2a degradation involves C-terminus but not the N-terminus of the HIF-2a protein. Pharmacological blockade as well as genetic knock down of XO prevented IH induced calpain activation and HIF-2a degradation in PC12 cells. Systemic administration of allopurinol to rats prevented IH-induced hypertension, oxidative stress and XO activation in adrenal medulla. These results demonstrate that ROS generated by XO activation mediates IH-induced HIF-2a degradation via activation of calpains. Citation: Nanduri J, Vaddi DR, Khan SA, Wang N, Makerenko V, et al.

The interplay among Grx3, Fra2 and Aft2 responsible for the regulation of iron homeostasis has not been clearly described. Here we solved the crystal structures of the Trx domain (Grx3Trx) and Grx domain (Grx3Grx) of Grx3 in addition to the solution structure of Fra2. Structural analyses and activity assays indicated that the Trx domain also contributes to the glutathione S-transferase activity of Grx3, via an inter-domain disulfide bond between Cys37 and Cys176. NMR titration and pull-down assays combined with surface plasmon resonance experiments revealed that Fra2 could form a noncovalent heterodimer with Grx3 via an interface between the helix-turn-helix motif of Fra2 and the C- terminal segment of Grx3Grx, different from the previously identified covalent heterodimer mediated by Fe–S cluster.
